Thank god cisco added the ability to use memory-size iomem on 7200's.
With the default (64MB I believe), our NPE-300's choke at 3 full BGP
tables, CEF, uRPF and communities (no soft reconfig).
After I do a "memory-size iomem 32", I have about 40MB left in the end,
and IO has about 30MB free. At least that buys me a few months on NPE
upgrades.
If your finding yourself trimming back some features because of memory
on the NPE300/400, take a look at the "memory-size iomem", it can at
least buy you another 32MB if your not in that much need of IO-Mem.
